DOOM benchmark Result Thread.

The latest driver made a MASSIVE difference to smoothness on my 970's.

In fact i've never really noticed a driver to make much difference, in this case it was night and day. Now its glass-smooth and G-sync r0xX0rs with DOOM:p

shame about the crashes...
 
Everyone using AMD cards install the 16.5.2.1 drivers. Fixes a lot of issues and give FPS 35% boost

Interesting that the gtx780 is being beaten by the 960.

Think there might be a problem with the 780 as well actually - testing with mine and a 970 the 780 gets around 43fps looking at the most intensive part of the first room regardless of settings from highest to low (something not right there) while the 970 gets like double that with highest settings and well over 100 at lower settings. Which would explain why there is such a massive difference from it and the 780ti in most Doom benchmarks - way beyond what there should be given how little difference there is in the cards - though that is kind of odd that it affects one and not the other.
 
The updated driver has certainly helped my 290. Can play ay Ultra profile (+16x AF) at 1200p on average around 90fps although it jumps around anywhere between 60-120 fps depending on whats going on. previous driver I had to set Shadow quality to low to get similar fps.

Something really isn't right with this game at 2560x1440 on my 780 - with any settings (low to ultra) other than nightmare with VRAM load between 17xxMB and 29xxMB depending on settings - so its not like it is purely due to running out of VRAM it struggles along at 43fps (other than looking at a blank wall where it jumps to 80fps) acting like it is on the one down from max V-Sync multiplier on a 60Hz setup - however I'm fully using G-Sync with all V-Sync off. If I stick the 970 in then it jumps to around 80-120fps.

However if I drop down to 1920x1080 resolution suddenly it is running fine with 60-100fps in most cases even with all ultra settings.

Probably gonna have to play it on the 970 though I usually use the 780 as its faster in most of the games I actually play.
 
I can confirm the new amd drivers are great for my 390x. Everything on ultra, 1080p, and I haven't noticed it drop below 70 at any point :)
 
I'm getting the exact same fps on both low and ultra/nightmare settings. What the hell :confused:

50-55fps constant, vsync and anti-aliasing disabled, 7970 @ 1440p.

I'm happy with the fps considering my 4 year old card and the high res, but it's strange that I get the same fps no matter what setting I choose.

Unless you have a card with more than 5GB of VRAM that isn't with nightmare settings as it will drop you to <5fps with all the paging out of system RAM.

I'm having a similar problem where 1440p no matter settings (other than nightmare which does the above) it sits at a very laggy ~45fps (thuogh it does jump to 60-80fps looking at a blank wall so its definitely not V-Sync) but runs fine at 1080p.
 
Not true...for this game, I'm much more worried about the gameplay than the frame rate to be completely frank! :D

Personally I don't care about the multiplayer too much, I just want the singleplayer story/campaign to be an enjoyable experience. Loved Doom 2, and Doom 3 were different but I enjoyed it with it felt like 1st person Resident Evil in space, and much more of a survival horror than a Resident Evil 4 itself was :p

Doom 3 annoyed me the jump scare infinite difficulty took away from what i wanted from a doom game. But I won't say it was a bad game just saddened that it wasn't the shooter i wanted it to be.
